PLAYS MINT FROM START TO FINISH
NEAR MINT SLEEVE WITH LYRIC INSERT
THE RECORD
THE LABELS
THE WHITE LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE DEEP RICH COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE BLACK TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE
THE VINYL
THIS HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL IS IN SUPERB CONDITION, REALLY GLOSSY AND NOT DULL LIKE MOST WORN OUT COPIES. IN DAY LIGHT THE DISC LOOKS FLAWLESS APART FROM A FEW TINY PIN HEAD SIZED WHITE MARKS ON TRACK 3 SIDE ONE. THESE ARE INFACT DISCOLOUR SPOTS WHERE THE VINYL IS NO LONGER BLACK. THEY HAVE NO IMPACT ON THE AUDIO WHATSOEVER
WHEN PLACED UNDER A MAGNIFYING LED HALO THE RECORD SHOWS JUST A FEW TINY WISPT HAIRLINES
THE TEST PLAY
THE RECORD PLAYS AS NEW ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES WITHOUT DISTORTION WHATSOEVER, MEANING THAT THE FEW PLAYS THE LP HAS RECEIVED WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED STYLUS AND ALSO UNWORN .
PLEASE PLAY THE SOUNDBITES AND THEN YOU WILL TRULY APPRECIATE JUST HOW MAGNIFICENT THIS 1973 RECORDING TRULY IS
FIRSTLY THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT
NO DUST POPS OR TICS
NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE
I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE PLAYTHROUGH AS MINT
PLAY ALL OF THE SOUNDBITES AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN PERSONAL STANDARDS
